Elizabeth Barrett to Richard Hengist Horne, 5 February 1844: '[Samuel Lover] is a very powerful writer of Irish novels [...] You probably know his ballads [...] His novels, however, all of which I have not read, are the stuff whereon his fame is made -- and they are highly vital, & of great value in the sense of commentary on the national character.'
